JACK Winters and his 'paIdneT," DOlall.
were out on a prospecting tour i'll Southern
New Mexico late last summer, and were
lneeti Is with Indifferent success when their
attention was turned toward Lii coin county
by the reports they heard of u Mexican who
had fURud IA nugget of gold in the neighhCr-
hood of where White OAKS how stands. They
went to the locality and commenced work
upon d placer. Shortly at er going into these
'.diggings' a strapped" miner named Wilson
came along from Arizona, and being pretty
hard pressed for a grub stake, Winters took
him in and put him AT work in the placers.
They could not afford TO employ him on a
salary. and after remaining in camp three days
Wilson took a grub stake and started up Bax-
Ter canon. Sitting Oh a boulder to rest he
Clipped off a corner Of the rock and found
color" He concluded that there must be a
good lode somewhere in the vicinity, and
commenced a search fer an outcTOp up the
mountain side. He had travelled but twenty
Yards when lie found the enchanted spot and
located the famous Homestake claim. He
went back tC camp and reported his find. of,
fering it for sale. All the wealth that VIM
lers had was forty dollsrs' worth of wash
.ngs aud three silver dollars. With this and
a pistol the HcmeStake was secured, and the
interest divided with Dolan and a merchant
of Lincoln. named lie Rue, who had grub
staked the placer miners before Wilson appear
ed up III the scene. The purchasers OF the
Homestake commenced the work of develop
ment Immediately, and at a depth of four
feet from the surface, wire gold, standing out
plain to the naked eye, was found. At a
depth of eight feet. five assays had been made,
giving the astonishing average OF $4,000 per
ton. The mine is now dow some twelve
feet, and ore is being placed OH the dump,
waiting treatment when stamp mills arrive.
Still the fabulous wealth of the Homestake is
hot known, and it is thought that millions
will be taken out before the shaft reaches the
depth where most gold mines first show signs,
Wilson owns the south half of the mine still,
and has become a millionaire, where but a
few months ago he was but a tramp prospect,

JEROME AND HIS WIFE.
A Romance Relating 20 the Present Head
of the House OF B0naparte.

Prince jerome, the present head OF the
House of Bonaparte, has that his
wife, the Princess Clothilde, sister OF King
Humbert of Italy, has consented to live with
him once more. This announcement must
be taken with a good deal Of salt. Prince
Jerome is clever enough to set in circulation
such a story, knowing very we'll that it will
prop his crumbling fortunes as leader OF the
Imperial cause, and as it is not likely to be
contradicted officially its truth is a matter OF
secondary importance. But there are a good
many strong reasons why the story should not
be true. From first to last the Princess has
hated the Prince very cordially. They were
married because Napoleon LII. declared that
unless the marriage took place Italy, in her
| struggle for liberty and union, could have no
assistance from France. The Princess had
set her atfections-so far as a Princess prop
erly might set her afiections-upon the gallant
young Due de Charities. Naturally, she did
not wish to marry Prince Jerome. Count
Cavour overcame her objections by pointing
out to her that to yield was a patriotic duty
so she yielded. The marriage took place
January 30, 1859. The poor Princess has
had a very miserable time of it. Herhusband
treated her always with conmendable courte-
sy, but the number of his lady friends really
was beyond any woman's endurance. 1t was
hoped that the baby would prove a bond of
union between husband and wlte-as fire.
q~uently is the case when less exalted couples
are at odds-but though the baby came (the
little Prince Victor Jerome Frederic, born
July Is, 1862, harmony did not come with
him. Two more babies, Louis Joseph Jerome,
born July 10, 1864, and Letitia, born DeCem-
Der 20, 1866, were equally unsuccessful as
thermometers. Indeed things went on from
bad to worse until a separation in fact, though
not in name, brought to the husband ease

A ShrewL Guess

He was evidently "tenderfoot but as he
stopped before all old miner and held out a
piece of micaceous granite for his inspection
he made a strong effort to look as if he had
been born with a contempt for civilization,
and that the feeling had been steadily growing
on him ever since. what do you make this
out to be ?' lie asked, indicating the specimen
with a nod. "Humph!' was the expressive
answer. "Gold quartz Or carbonates ?" The
honest miner" turned it over in his hand
indifierently, took out his knife, and picked
at it for a while, and then said Got much
Of it?n Thousands of TONS" replied the
other eagerly. Glow much do you suppose
she'll run ?' I" Can't tell nuthin' without an
assay " But you can guess, can't you; You
can guess?" "Oh yes" answered the barna-
Gle, :. anybody kin guess ; but a guess Is liable
10 be extrayagant. Now, l shall say-Dut
mind ye | may go over the mark should
sxa-a-y ~(turning the specimen over again and
holding it up to the lightly, l should s-a-a-y
that ii we can save the gold in thisa and catch
the silver, and not waste the lead, it might
run about-well, about 81 TO the county"

printing paper, in strong nitric acid

the heat Jf boiling water t2l2 degrees.)
It explodes with much greater violence
and suddenness than gun-powder,. and
for that reason is more Liable 10 burst
the gun. See what a power sleeps in
our ignorance. Take a saw and cat up
bit of deal board, bit Of dried pine
board. Make a teacup full Of saWdnst
Steep this in a saucer full Of aquaiorils,
dry slowly at a distance from the fire,
and this single cupful Of compound,
filled into q Tin vessel and inserted in
the basement wall Of building, will,
when exploded, blow it to pieces.
