The gold claim at Plymouth is owned
by Worcester, Boston, New York and
st. Louis men. The gold washes out in
grains varying from the size of mus
tard-seed to that of a pea, and averages
SIS day per laborer. The stream from

for the quartz veins, and the company
will probably put up stamp mill after
some experimental digging.

Scene i'm Jerusalem.

Emerging from under an arch was a
grave old turbaned Turk. He had o
long white beard, and wore suit of
dark blue cloth, red silk girdle, lemon
colored pointed leather shoes, and tar
boosh wound round by large green
turban. This green turban is sign
that he is haj, OF one who has been on
a pilgrimage to Mohammed's grave at
Mecca.
He moved along slowly and majestical-
ly, for in the Orient one never sees an
effendi hurrying along the streets. How
ever busy men may be, they always
walk calmly and leisurely, as if quite at
their ease. Behind this effendi his slave
carried his masters pipe.
Donkeys, mules, horses, and camels
were passing, some of the donkeys laden
with wood, others with vegetables, and
driven by peasants who were dressed in
white shirts reaching below the knee,
their waists encircled by broad red
belts, while on their heads they wore
large striped silk turbans of bright
colors. Their shoes were made of I'M
dressed camel's leather, bound round
the edge with yellow leather, and fastened
by latchet made of the same.
The mules had small brass bells hung
round their necks, which, as they moved
along, rung quite merrily. They were
laden with tents and canteens belonging
to camp life. Probably some travellers
had arrived from trip up the country.
The camels roared and beloved, ms if
they did not approve coming into the
city; they were laden with charcoal,
which was in long black sacks.

Eyeglasses that are made Of the pur-
est glass can be considered safe-specks,
rays, globules, or other imperfections
are detrimental. Though more costly,
pebbles possess two important advan-
tages, namely; extreme hardness, rend-
ering it extremely difficult to scratch or
break them; and clearness, never be-
coming dull from moisture; and they
are also thought to be cooler than any
other glass. To be good and true the
glasses should likewise be, in all their
parts, of an equal thickness in proper
ton to their conveXity or concavity, as
well as of an equal form. Another and
easily applied test of true glasses is that
of holding them obliquely over print all
the letters of which will be found to pre-
serve their true characters if their glasses
are correct.

According to London Truth, modern
society in the most refined and aristo-

A new torpedo boat is made of sheet
iron, is about 25 feet in length, and IS
inches in diameter, and is pointed at
both ends. The motive power is a screw
propelled by an engine which derives
its motion from the generation of gas.
The course of the boat is directed from
the shore or vessel from which it is sent
by means of electricity, wire for the
transmission of the electricity being paid
out as the boat advances. The explo-
sive power is dynamite, of which 1916
pounds are used in loading each boat.
Boats of this kind have been sold to the
Russian government and to the Peru
Wan government, and some are in course

preston to some words of wisdom that
will answer for consumption in any mar
ket or in any latitude. We do not know
that our own merchants and manufac-
tures require any prodding of this sort,
but they will be none the worse for be-
ing made sensible of how a
situation analogous in some re-
spects to the relations existing
between Cincinnati and the States pene-
trated by her Southern Railroad and its
connections, is regarded by the mer-
chants of other cities. Here is what
the Democrat says: "When the last
rail is laid between New Orleans and
Texas, our army of invasion must be
ready to go in with rush. They must
have their newest and brightest samples
ready, and the prices must be marked
down so low as to make the st. Louis,
Chicago and other 'up country drum
mers fairly quake in their boots. And
then when the Texas dealers visit the
city, they must be convinced by actual
figures that it is to their interest to deal
with us. There is no use telling them
that New Orleans stood by them during
the war; that we are their best friends,
and all that sort of thing. These Tex
ans have become decidedly practical and
business-like in their ways since the
railroads and Yankees got into their
midst, and, while they may appreciate
a compliment or champagne lunch,
when they come to purchase goods they
will be very apt to compare our figures
with those Of other markets"
