But Elam hastily placed her upon the

AURT TABITHA.
ny OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES,

Whatever do, and whatever say,
Aunt Tabitha tells me that isn't the way;
When she was girl forty summers ago)
Aunt Tabitha tells me they never did so.
Dear aunt! If 1 only would take her advice
Bnt like my own way, and I find it so nice {!
And besides. forget half the things am told
But they all will come back to me-when am
old.
If youth passes by, it may happen, no doubt,
lie may chance to look in rs chance to look
out;
She would never endure an impertinent STARE
1t is horrtd, she says, and mustn't sit there.
A walk in the moonlight has pleasures, I own,
But it isn't quite safe to be walking alone;
So l take lads arm, just for safety, you
know
But Aunt Tabtha tells me they never did so.
How wicked We are, and how good they were
They kept at arms length those detestable men;
What an era of virtue she lived in but stay
Were the men oil such rogues in Aunt Tabitha' s
day?
If the men cere so wicked, I'll nsk my papa
How he dared to propose to my darling man.
Was he like the rest of them' Goodness ! Who
knows?
And what shall say if wretch should pro-
pose?
am thinking if Aunt knew so little Of sin,
What n wonder Aunt Tabitha aunt must have
been
And her grand-aunt-it scares mellow shock
ingly sad
That we girls of to-day are so frightfully bad

Let me perish-to rescue some wretched young
man
Though when to the altar victim go,
Aunt Tabitha'll tell me she never did SO!

looked at her intensely for moment and
sai1, "Ella, why will you not walk out with
me? Do you not love me ?" "Oh, yes I
love you," said Miss Hearu "but I'm afraid
ofyou." "Do you love Mr.--" To this
question she received no reply, when she
became very much excited and spoke again
quickly, "Do you lovo Miss Foster better
than you do me? The answer was, "Ycsw
This appeared to terribly excite Miss Duer,
and she rushed wildly about in terrible
state of excitement. Don't say that Ella
don't say that" she kept repeating, while
Miss Hearn stood rooted to the spot b. the
vehemence of her manner. Presently Miss
Duor came close to her and said, "If you
say that again 1 will shoot you," aud took
out her pistol aud cooked it. Then she
appeared to become more calm and seemed
to want to SNAKE up" with her now thor
oughly frightened friend. She attempted
to kiss her, but was rcpulsed by Miss Hearn,
who put out her arms to warn her off,
This caused her to slip and fall upon her
knees. "She was then furious, and gave
me such a fearful look that shall never
forget in my dying day." said Miss Hearn
in relating the circumstances. "She pointed
the pistol right at my head. held up my
arm to ward it off and l cried out, 'Oh,
don't shoot me, please, Lille don't shoot
me F; | will go with you; will love you "
But it was too late, and the next second
the pistol was fired and the ball had done
its deadly work. Miss Hcarn fingered be-
tween life and death for month, and at
one time seemed in fair way for recovery,
when, on December 6, she became rapidly
worse, and died peacefully and quietly from,
nervous prostration caused b. the shook to
ier system by the shooting. The coroner s
jury returned verdict that "NIiss Hearn
came to her death from nervous depression
caused by shot from pistol in the hands
Of Miss Lille Ducr." Miss Duer gave bail
in $500 for trial.
Snow HILL, May 3O.-The trial of Miss
Duer, for killing Miss Hcarn, was renewed
to-day. The testimony related principally to
tho nervous condition of the deceased after
the shooting and until her death -New

SLURs ON WoMEN.-Of all evils preva-
lent among young men, we know of none
more blighting in its moral effects than to
speak lightly of the virtues of women. Nor
is there anything in which young men are
SO thoroughly mistaken as the low estimate
they form of the integrity of women. Not
of their own mothers and sisters, but of
others, who they forget, are somebody clse's
mothers and sisters. AS a rule, no person
who surrenders to this debasing habit is to
be truted with an enterprise requiring in
tegrity of character. Plain words should
be spoken on this point, for the evil is
general one, and deep rooted IF young
men are sometimes thrown into the society
Of thoughtless or depraved women, they
have no more right to measure all other wo-
men by what they see of these than they
have to estimate the character of honest
and respectable citizens by the developments
OF crime in our police courts Let our
young men remember that their chief hap
piness in life depends upon the utter faith
ia women. No worldly wisdom, no misap-
thropic philosophy, no gencraliz alton, can
cover or weaken truth. 1t stands like the
record OF itseIf-tor it is nothing less than
this-and should put an everlasting seal
upon the lips that are wont to speak lightly
OF woaaea.--Moore's Rural New Torher.

Bound TO CoME.-Only little while,
vain man, only little while and when you
come home from the Office at even or noon,
the wife of your bosom will meet you at the
door with an anxious look in her eye and
fly brush OF an apron in her hand. She
will hold the door open just three inches
for you to crowd yourself through, and as
you make hopeless efforts to slide in through
that space, above your head and under your
feet aad around your legs that fly brush will
whira and nestle like reckless meteor, and
when you finally crowd in and two flies fol-
low you, the goddess Of your home will bang
the door and weep and say that she can go
in and out of that door fifty times a day,
and never pass fly inside, while you can't
come into the house without bringing mil
lions Of them in with you. 1t is hard, poor
man, we know It isn't fair on you, and it
isn't just, but it's got to come, and you
might just as we'll make up your mind to
stand it.-Burlington Hawkeye.

A Cliinaman, named All Sow, was
brought here yesterday from Oreana by
Deputy Sheriff Pryor. He was pro
nounced insane by commission com
posed of Judge Bonnifeld and Drs.
johnson and Hanson, and taken to
Stockton last evening. He appeared to
be idiotic and endangered the village OF
Oreana several times last week by
building fires close to the buildings.
The Chinese at that place would not
permit him to enter their huts, and the
miserable being was kept from starving
by white men.

McDernlit Reservation.

Some years ago the Government sur
veyed strip of land ON McDermit
Creek, near the Military Post, and re-
served the same for hay reservation.
Owing to an error in the names of the
streams, as described on the official plat
of the survey, settlers built fences and
went to considerable expense in build
ing bitches to get water for irrigating
purposes on land which the Govern
ment recently claimed as being within
the boundaries of the reservation The
settlers were notified to leave and
abandon their lands and improvements
within a specified time. They remon-
strated, claiming that the lands on
which they had settled were not within
the limits of the reservation, as de-
scribed on the official plat. The Gov
eminent ordered new survey of the
lands to be made, and Lieutenant Carl
F. Palfrey, OF the Engineer Corps, U.
S. A., was detailed to. make it. He
completed the survey last week, but
whether it corresponds with the old
survey or not has not yet been made
public, M

ore as it comes from the mine was
shipped to Torrey's mill at Oreana.
The battery sample assayed $3.50 per
ton, and was worked up to 90 per cent.
(wet crushing). As an observer of
mining and friend to mining enter
prises, would like to see this mine
when shaft has been sunk to depth
of 100 feet or more.
OTHER MINES.
The Mammoth mine, owned by the
Mount Rose Company, is situated some
1000 feet southwest from the Red
Deer and on the summit of the hill,
and is being worked under the super
intendanse of Capt Rawlings. The
ore struck in the Wine is of very high
grade.
The Gen. Lee mine is situated 700 feet
east of the Mammoth, and has ledge
Al feet wide at depth of Is feet.
A rumor is afoat that strike has
been made in the Rather mine at a
depth of 45 feet. This mine is situated
on the west side of the canyon going
from Paradise to Spring City.
The Adventure mine is claimed as
the south end of the Rough & Ready
mine, belonging TO the Paradise Com
pany. The locators are pushing in
tunnel to cut the Rough & Ready
mine at right angles. 1t is believed
that twenty feet more will cut the
Paradise ledge.
Returning to camp, my attention was
called to the dumps of the Gulcb mine
This mine, like all the others, was
gouged out by it's owners, and left for
capital to come along and purchase or
lease. E. P. Torrey has succeeded in
getting a lease for six months, and
commenced at once to sink vertical
shaft. A small crushing has been made
at the Sedan mill of the ore, with sat
isfactory results.
A new road is being surveyed from
the Bullion and Big Prize mines to the
Sedan mill, which will shorten the dis
tance from to about miles.
The Fourth of July will be celebrated
here in the usual way The stores are
filled with the supplies the miners re-
quire. Water is plenty-springs are
everywhere to be found. The valleys
adjoining and south of the mines are
under cultivation, and almost anything
can be grown in them but capital.

The SeYenty-Six.

Some time since, in making some mining comments, We stated that Vt had 5een informed that the '76 or, body was exhausted. We know wt were surprised when we were SO Tn formed, as we had previously been told by a reliable party that the '76 mint was one of the best in Pinal county The Superintendent of that mine write: Us under date of January 13, as fol lows:
 " Il are mistaken in suppOsing the ore body If the '76 exhausted We have not been working it during the Summer and Fall, but have teen sink ing new working shafI and are now down l03 feet. Being a large shafl and having a complete hoIslins engine and all the machinery necessary, We have suspended work m The mine only till we can procure timber and lumber to place this machinery in working condition. when We will again resume work In the interim rather than have the mill stand idle waiting for our ONn ore. we have been crushing Silver King ore. We have never lrvied an assessment and propose never tn l'v, one And while we have as yet had no dividend I can't say but il d"es look little >uSpicI"us that we shall have to im,.E a dividend "n the stock holders before d great while"
 We are very much pleased 10 pub fish this good sho ing for the '76 With no assessment thIs company has very fine mill, worked economically and not suffered To stand idle while opening up their mine; and now if IT addition there should be shortly paid d dividend, we think Superintendent Foreman will have reason to be proud of the record.

School lands.

Certain parties have caused alarm and disquiet 10 the Bndie, California, mine owners by laying claim to lhe land on which some of the mines are situated. under lhe law of State Selec uOn. Sme good generally comes out of evil, and as a result of Ihe Bodle contest the right of the State or Ter ritnry tn sections 16 and 36 is being more clearly laid down. The San Francisco Alta of the l5, gives :he following points as having been evoked in the premiSrs. We make room for them as being of local present and future Use, and becau>e there is an im- pression in this Territory among set tiers that sections 16 and 36. upon sur vey, revert 10 the Territory as school lands, even though settled upon pre- vinusly tO survey. Sucn is not the case. The points referred tn are:
 1. The ate Supreme Courl has de- cided that there Is nn school land tilI the survey winch creaIes I'd her tLan defines 1t
 , The Federal Statute gives the land e. the Siale al the survey, 1T there is DO dwelling, cultivation, public re servaIIun, or private claim on II; and in that case the StaIe takes lieu land elsewhere.
 3. The Secretary of the Interior has decided that the discovery of minerals m the land aficr the survey d"e> Il | divert the State title tp >cn"Ol or Uni yersi y lands, aad that such discovery in lands previously patented to in dividuals or corporations does not af. Ieci the title. The grantees hold ab- solutely, unless sn far d. reservation Is made in he paleul for rights that accrued previously.
 4. The Fe,,eral Statue nf May, 1872, provides that lOcaturs ui minerals shall have the rxclu>iv" right of DO -sessI"n and enjoyment of their claims held ID accordance with the law.
