EnGttention.

The foe of married happiness is in- attention. The real wrong to the wife, the real failure to the husband is when he becomes unconscious of what she is doing for hIm. and what she is in herself. A man should every day see in his wife the woman she is. Whsteycr purity, sweetness, womanli
 ness he once saw in her, and thrilled at the sight of; whatever fuller and richer growth the years have brought these things he should see in her continually. Not mere part Of the domestic machine should she be to him: not even a mere comfort and convenience and pleasure to himself her soul, in it's full stature should come home 10 his constant thought Whatever charm of face or manner, whatever womanly grace, whatever quickness of thought or delicate sym pathiy, would strike a strangers notice ought far better to be seen and pTiZed by him, her husband. IL is little to say that her face ought to be as beau tiful each day tO his eyes as If they looked upon it tor the first time; it should be far more beautiful, because he has learned 10 see through its windows .he soul within. And in the same way the wife should look upon her husband. Ii is this true yet tender regard which makes the right atmOs- phere for the soul to ripen in. Few things touch so deeply as to be under stood. But to be understood and loved 10 have the best that is in Us made iull account of; to know that our faults, too, are open to that sweet and gentle gaze: so long to be worthy of a love so pure and high that only our highest and ideal self can deserve it-what other influence can SO strongly draw us toward all our noblest possibilities This is the work of true marriage: to reveal two souls 10 each other in their ideal beauty, and then 10 bring that ideal to realiZalion.-Unity.

The Secret of Successful Oratory.

They were holding an outdoor meet ing the other night, and a speaker had just commenced 10 warm up to his work when a stranger with all his worldly duds in an old Sheepskin on his back, boots gone, hat gone and dyed In-the-woOl tramp ar about him, halted on the outskirts of the crowd. The speech soon caught him, and he began 10 applaud. Al the end Of every sentence he clapPed his hands ard roared like q fog-norn. No mat ter whether the speaker hit 'em or not, the stranger never failed to come down with the applause. and he car ried a good share of the crowd with him. After the speaker had finished and was wiping his heaed brow, the tramp approached him md said:
 That ere speech vas the best l heard in all my lifen
 An, I'm glad it blessed you.'
 Pleased mel Why il lifted me right ofI'n my feet l fell you, you're born orator, and 1 just wish I could stay in town and hear you make speech every night"
 Yes, l wish you coIld
 But I cant. 1 :m on my way West. I shall, however, think of your speech a hundred tines a day. I can feel the electricity of it yet, and-say can't you lend me half dollar to help me on?n
 Why should I lend you half dol lar; don't know yUuy'
 On. come now-don', try to ride q high horse over me; you know how loud I hollered. and you know as well as l do that if hadn't put in my best ticks you'd have fallen as lat as shingle! You qIc great orator, sir. and that was a great speech, but if you know that hollering is what does the business, you'd better hang right up"
 The orator poudered over the matter for few seconds, and then probably concluded that the reasoning was sound, as he passed over the money.

Death of Adelaide NeiIson.

Adelaide Nelson was taken i'll on the night of the 14th while driving on the Bois de B1lOgne with a lady. who has been living with her as q com
 nanion. She had been staying at the Continental Hotel for few days pre-
 yious to her death with her companion her servant and q gentleman, who IS described as her secretary. The cir cumstances surrounding her death are so suspicious that a police inquiry may become necessary. The rooms which Miss Nelson occupied at the Continental Hotel have been sealed up. and telegrams have been dis. patched to her realatives. Another
 dispatch says: Miss Nelson had left her home with party of friends in the best of spirits, and apparently Tn good health, to take dejouner in the famous Duchalet Restaurant on the Bois de Cologne At the table she frequently alluded 10 her success in the profession, and spoke hopefully of what she expected to accomplish dur ing the coming season and ln the more distant future. Suddenly Miss Neil son turned pale, gave a low cry, pressed her hand upon her heart, and fell back in her char. Her friends sprang to her assistance and attempted to bring her to consciousness, dispatch ing q messenger for medical aid, but all efforts were of no avail. Miss Neil son was dead.

Pins and 2 Eo..,an,s nrcs..


 Our vic wants new dress. After two or three or half a dozen stores have been ransacked for the goods the dressmaker is brought out. 1he mat ter of measurement Is tedious, sad tHe matter Of fitting IS one of numerous and repeated trials. Finally the dress Is finished and sent home. Then II l. sent 10 be taken in here and let ont there, and at last, after the customer has been i ted more times for that one dress than her husband has been measured in thiee or four years, the dress comes home for the last time and IS pronounced by the wearer and her friends and lhe dressmaker as beautiful and perfect fit, and it IS finished.
 Beautiful j, certalnly is, fur more beautiful than anything her husband ever wears. COlurs and material, style, blending shades and contrasting bits of color, are all in the perfection of good taste. No man can improve upon that. But, it isn't finished. When II IS completed as far as the skill of the dressmaker can finish it, and il is put on, 1t has 10 be pinned somewhere; {; sometimes In two or three, often in half 8 d"Zen places. IL always re qulres a pm. Leave out the pin and the dress Is all awry somewhere On all this broad continent there is not one American woman who eau dress so as to make any kind oi an appear ance in good society without pins.
 Now, suppose our tailor should send our suit home, an1 when we had put on the coat we had to pin it at the neck? Or suppose there were no sus- bender buttons aft, and we had to use pins there? Suppose we made our shirts so We would have to pin on the collar, how long would such a shirt or such a suit of clothes stay in the house? Who would be responsible for the language used by the man who had to pm his coat2 No tailor would care to so tempt the wrath of an inde pendent man. But woman-alasl she patiently pins on the dress that she paid some S3G or $40 to make, and doesn't thInk anything about it. We will not pursue this painful subject. Let the women of America take il up and think about it and learn, in tine noble independence of womanhoUd, to make their clothes before they put them on.

1 Remarkable sInn.

4 Nevada paper tells this little cpl sode in the life of a man known as Grizzly Dan:
 AS an Indian fighter, when under the controlling influence of drink, he is also a holy terror. In Montana he was once set upon by a whole tribe of bowling red devils and was obliged to run for his life. He headed for the brink of a cliff zoo feet high, dodg- ing the bullets fired at him as he ran, being able through long practice to tell the course of a ball by the sound as ii pprOached from the rear. Griz- zly Dan unhesitatingly leaped over the cliff, Co the amaze ment of the In dIans who gathered in a TOW to watch his fall. Dan turned in tue air as he was falling, raised his Winchester rifle to his shoulder and pulled the trigger An Indian toppled over with ball through his left eye, and Dan kept pulling the lever and trigger until seventeen of the red devils had balls through their left eyes and were tall ing over the cliff after him. The eighteenth shot only carried away an Indians nose as the air was full of falling Indians between Dan and the top of the cliff that his aim was a little confused He struck feet first in the river below and swan ashore un- injured. The Indian remaining on top of the cliff was the sole survivor Of the trbe, and was ever afterwards known as "Man-with-a-hole-in-his. nose"

MR. A. DEERE, of the Derre & Townsend mill at Arivaca, who has been stopping in town for a few days, leaves tonight for the mill. This fine mill has been running for some time on Longrina ore, working It up to about 80 per cent.-which, as the ore is very rebellious, is considered particularly good work by mill men. The company have decided 10 erect a White & Howell furnace for roasting ores, which will be of especial value to Arivaca District They now have contracts to mill 300 tons of ore from Sonora, and 200 tons of Arivaca rock, and from two of their own mines, the Valarauge and Hombre, have about IA men at work developing them and taking out ore. Altogether the reports from this rich district arc such as to indicate that the clouds which have so long overshadowed it are clearing away.

rhe Turtle and the Snail.

 What arc you doing, squatiy i; training for A six days walk?" said the snail as he carelessly shifted hi $ shell little more to one side, tn 8 turtle passing along the road. No, I aiut, smarly; and when do won't come to you for advice, " replied the turtle. who had not had his breakfast vet. although he had taken his cock tail some some time before, and was irritahlv hungry, Well you needn't rpt mad about it. 1 say, old fel. q 0olIvwor told me the other day that vou always lie on your hack when you sleep: is that so?" Sneered the snail. for it was an insolent snail, and knew not its danger. You are too fresh, my young friend replied the tmtle, leisurely moving towards the snail. You ought to go to Utah and take swim in Salt Lake" (" 1 ain't on the swim" clipped in the snail, " and if was l wouldn't go bathing in the mud, as certain party know of. does.n What's his name" asked the turtle, edging up near the snail, Tell me, and I'll show you trick you can't do"
 " Honest?"
 "Honest injun."
 Well, his name is mud-turile,' said the snail, laughing till his shell fell of from his back. Now show me A trick I can't dO."
 All right, my hearty, quOth the turtle, and he snapped the snail up and swallowed him in one gulp. You couldn't do that, coulG you.' said the turtle with knowing wink at the empty snail shell
 The moral of this truthful lie is sQ obvious that it is needless for gssB | caution our readers not to come out of their shells to sass a bigger man who has not breakfasted.

TyeekIv Report of Mining Associated Press
 NEW YORK. August ls.-Transac'
 tions at the mining exchanges during
 ,be rss. week have aggregated 442,.
 s75 shares. saying nothing Of tranac-
 uons upon the street in unlisted stocks.
 Dealings to day were had in Ss'so2 shares The volume of business done in this city and San Francisco may he fairly Illustrated by comparing to- days transactions with those reported in San Francisco a week ago Yester- day. when the sales amounted to 2J,- 97O shares. The figures would seem to indicate that with nearly four times inc business, New York is certainly the mining center of the country. There is a steady and healthy increase here, and apparently as steady de crease on the Pacific slope. San Fran cisco has watched and waited for menths for A boom, not in the shares Of mines scattered all over the coun try, but simply on the Comstock. In dications now seem to point 10 in creased activity in that direction, based upon the reported discovery of an ore body, more or less extensive, in tbe Union. Whether the new move ment is 10 be founded on merit or on manipulation will probably make no difference. SO long as there is deal, and San Francisco brokers feel called upon again to use order books instead of their shirt cuffs to record their Op- erations. as it is reported they have been doing for some time Brokers in New York sympathize with their breth- ren in San Francesca, for this market feels the reflex influence, and business here is correspondiDgly better in Pa cilc coast shares, accordingly as the activity is greater there.
 As will be seen by the table given below, no Comstock mine, nor the mines of any single State or Territory absorb the attention of this market. The mining interests here are so di- vcrsifed that if one districtIgoes down another comes up Hardly a stock dealt in at San Francisco is excepted from the calls of our exchanges, but in addition there are so many other stocks that the diversity serves as a regulator II people in this city had been told 8 year ago that 99,962 shares of mining stocks would be sold in one day, and 442, 1875 in Q single week, the statement would have been secuted IL shows, however, that the mines have come to stay. Although these figures indicate a large amount of business. it is safe 10 predict that with. in four months there will be days and weeks when the transactions will be very much larger. The following table gives the number of shares dealt in during the week and closing prices for the stocks named:

Our neighboring district of Pata gonia is certainly of sufficient impOr- tancc to be worthy more attention at the hands of the Postal Department. As at present arranged, all regular mail matter goes around by Tomb. stone, causing delay of nearly 3G hours, instead Of going with the stage from PantanO.
