not help it. Before they had walked
six blocks and crossed the park, he had
offered himself to Miss Lorraine.
She didnot speak-hcr face was quite
white. He felt tho little hand on his
arm tremble. But her voice was silyery
clear, when she spoke at last:

BEA TTIFUL LINES.

A young lady of Philadelphia, VIII
had contributed several articles to tn
press of that city on the subject 0
Temperance, was accused of being
monomanisc on that subject, where
upon she wrote the following patheti
lines:
Go feel what have felt

Sink meath the blow father dealt,
And the cold, proud worlds scOrn;
Then suffer on from year to year
Thy sole relief o scOrchins tear.
Go kneel as have knelt,
Beseeeh, implore and pray
Strive the besotted heart to smelt,
Tho downward course to stay;
BE dashed with bitter curse aside;
Your prayers burlesqued, your tears defed.
Go weep as have wept
Ger loved fathers fall,
See every promised blessing swept.
Youths sweetness turned to gall
d.ife's fading flowers strewn oil the way
! That brought me up to woman's day.
Go zee what have seen;
Behold the strong man bowed,
With gusshing teeth lie batbed in blood.
And cool and livid brow;
Go catch his withered glance, and see
There mirrored his souls misery,
Go to my mothers side,
And her crushed bosom cheer
Thine own deep anguish hide,
Wipe from her cheek tear;
Mark the worn frame and withered brow,
The gray that streaks her dark hair now;
With fading form and trembling limb,
And trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith in early youth
Promised eternal love and truth,
But who, foresworn, hath yielded up
That promise to the cursed cup,

All that my soul hath felt and known;

DEATH VALLEY HORRORS.
Esan FRANCISCO chroniclel

[San Francisco Chroniclel
Mrs. Brown, residing at No. 1885 Mar
ket street, in this city, is in receipt of a
letter from Panamint, which contains
terrible tale of suffering. One of the vic
Tins of Death valley has family in San
Francisco, but Mrs. Brown has been UNI
able to find them. The letter is as fol-
lows:
PANANIINT, Oct IA, 1880.
A week ago six men left Darwin for Arr
IONA, and, in crossing Death valley, lost
their way. The first we knew of it, two
came in here nearly persisted. We at
once fitted out two parties to 60 for the
others. / was one selected to go, as l
knew the country. 1t is away east of
our Byfogle mines. Our horses gave en-
tirely out, and on foot we could not pack
water and food and search very far from
our camp. The other party had much
the better horses, and were one day a.
head of us. They found one more just
alive, and they managed very well to save
him. Another came in by himself, leav-
ing two in the great desert. One is named
Wilson and the other Henri Allari,
who has family somewhere on Mission
street, which his companion says, is not
far from the new City Hall. 1t may not
be on Mission street. We want you to
find her if possible. She has two girls,
aged Is and 10 years. We don't know
how to get a letter to her, only by you.
If you cannot find her you may learn Of
her through the last census records. The
policeman in that vicinity would assist
you. In the census records it would be
likely Mrs. Allari. Poor fellow, he has
suffered terribly before his companions
left him. They packed him to shady
place. He cut off some of his beard and
gave it to Wilson with some trinkets to
be sent to his home, but Wilson is lost
too. The last one that came in had just
sharpened his pocket-knife ON piece of
rock, determined to end his suffering, and
just at that time the party discovered
him. The other that came in by himself
had no knife or any weapon, or he would
have put an end to his sufferings long
before. At last he got crazy, and strug-
| gled up canyon and found water.
They had nine animals, and only two
got back. They all gave out and perish.
ed but one, and they cut his throat and
divided the blood between them and
drank it. If they had not done that none
would have got through. We shall fiji
out an expedition to find their bodies
and bury them as soon as found. I will
write you again. The names of the sur
vivers are Simon Vivier, Joseph Bunnell
Isadore Dannet, Charles Shafer. Tell Mrs
Allari that we have done all we could te
save her husband and Thomas Wilson
but Death valley is more than one hun
bred miles long, and the hardest country
to travel over on earth, and many mar
has died there-the Dryer party, thu
Bennett party, and scores of others. l
| you can't find the family, have the paper
publish the affair.

RECENT DECISIONS DISPUTED
POINTS.

The mining law does not prohibit the
same party from holding more than one
claim on the same lode.
A party is not authorized to 60 within
the claim in possession of another party
and discover ledge on which he may
base location.
The location of third party upon a
location outside of the first location but
within the second, will probably be rec
ognized as legal.
A locator's record should conform to
the actual location on the ground and
the proper method to correct mistake
in this matter would be to make new
record.
1t cannot properly be stated just how
far locator may deviate from the plain
requirements of section 1924 of the Re-
vised Statutes in making his location and
yet save his claim. Strict compliance
with the law is the only security with
the location IN. Y. Mining News.

Yesterday afternoon Fred. Pierce,
clerk in the hardware store of w N.
Hall & Co., went out to the race-track
with J. Minor Taylor to see the shooting
and while watching the artillery practice
loaned his buggy to frail female named
Dolly Palmer to drive around the track.
The girl picked up another young woman
and drove around twice at what Pierce
regarded as too rapid a gait, and rushing
upon the track he stopped the horse,
dragged Dolly Palmer out Of the buggy
and struck her in the face. After wit
Messing this exhibition of brutality, Mr..
Taylor refused to accompany Pierce home,
saying that he did not want anything
more to do with him. At about l o'clock
this afternoon Pierce met Taylor on G
street, near the Delta, and stepping up
to him struck him in the face. Taylor
staggered back against wagon, which
prevented him from falling, and Con-
stable Metcalf caught Pierce and placed
him under arrest on charge of assault
and battery. A few moments afterwards
Molly Palmer appeared at Justice Browns
Court and swore out warrant for the
arrest of Pierce on similar charge, and
he was placed under bonds. Virgins
