New STEAMER.--The handsome new
propeller "Helen," has been put upon
the route between this place and Port
Discovery, to make trip every day.
She will also make trip from here to
Dungeness and return Tuesdays and
Fridays, as appears by her advertise
ment elsewhere. The Helen was built
at Coupeville last year, by Mr.. John Al
exander OF that place, and Mr.. N. d.
Tobey, of Port Townsend. She is Al
feet long, and has II feet beam, meas
uring 1887 tons. Her machinery is bran
new, the engine having been built last
year at New Tacoma by Mr.. J. j. Hicks.
Mr.. Hicks, who is head machinist in
the saw-mill at Port Discovery, is the
owner of this staunch little craft, while
she is commanded by Capt. LEWIS, form
erly of the Phantom, Favorite, Mary
Taylor, and other steamers. Capt. Lews
is assisted by r. Davis, and they pro-
pose to keep the little boat humping
herself every day. She has commo-
dious pilot house and engine room, and
will have very comfortable passenger
accommodations when fully finished.
There is q growing demand for just
such boats as the Helen in our waters,
and the residents at the points between
which she runs will certainly appreciate
her, while the increased facilities thus
offered the travelling pnblic are espec-
tally noteworthy. We had the pleasure
of trip from Dungeness to this place
in the boat last Tuesday and know
whereof we speak when we say she spins
along at lively gait.

MINERS, SUGGESTIONS.

7 The miners of the West represent b 'lai go
,onglomeration of men. The English, Welsh
and Germans brought all of the old world
superstitions with them, and found theIu-
selves among class of men in the Mexican
camps who could equal and IN some cases
surpass theirs The Mexicans drew their
tales from two sources, their own Spanish
forefathers and the Aztecs and Toltecs.
found In the country when their forefathers
conquered it. Strange are the beliefs and
stories that have grown out of the union of
these superstitious elements. Things are
lucky or unlucky because possibly some
worker in the Hartz said SO 800 years ago,
or some old Toltec had fit of nightmare
at an equally remote period. One of the
most commonly believed tales is that of the
"Step-Devil" The men tell you that in
some of the oldest mines there is an evil.
spirit which takes the form of deformed
dwarf. A popularity about him is that he
has immensely long arms-arms SO long
that he can take off his sandals without
STOPPING. This dwarf, when there is any
danger in the mine, such as a cave, goes up
the ladders lifting himself by his arms, with
his legs hanging free. As he passes each
rung he kicks or stamps 1t out of the side
pieces, SO that the men when they attempt
to fly find all means of climbing out of the
mine destroyed. In very old mines, which
were worked by the Indians, there were no
ladders, but in their place trunks of trees
in which notches had been cut, and the
Indians climbed by inserting the big toes in
the notches. When the Indians tell you OF
the "Step Devil" they say that he has on
each big toe an enormous nail, and that az
he climbs the tree trunk he uses this to gouge
the notch out by splitting of the part on
which the toe rests The story is evidently
an Indian one, although altered by the
Mexicans to suit the change in the means Of
going up and down the shaft.

CUPID GETS AWAY WITH MARS.
Virginia Elopement Successful In Spite 81
An Angry Fathers Fist.

A day or two ago young LADY, in his
city, whose matrimonial tendencies did not
meet the favor of her parental parent, con
cluded to elope with the man of her choice,
and the arrangements were made looking to
speedy union in the land of "tar, pitch
and tuipentine." The Elizabeth City and
Norfolk Railroad furnishes an easy means
of transport to section where the consent
of parents is not a prerequisite to connubial
felicity, and where embarrassing questions as
to agen, etc, are not heard. To the Berkeley
depot of that road she accordingly hied,
and with her own swain mpatiently waited
the toot of the whistle for starting on her
momentous GRAND
Before that welcome sound was heard,
however, the "old man," who, it seems,
was up to the tricks of young lovers, appear
ed upon the scene in search of the truants.
He found his daughter on the platform of
the car, and endeavored with force and arms
to induce her TO alght from the train and
accompany him to the parental mansion
She struggled for her freedom, being en-
couraged by her lover, who, for his inter
ference, had his head punched by the iratt
parent.
In the meantime the train moved off, and
the aforesaid "old man." or party of the
first part, being of somewhat obese habits,
and w;.hal not very nimble upon his legs,
was compelled to relinquish his hold upon
his froward offspring, and was left standing
upon the platform, surveying in mute wrath
and rueful visage the swiftly vanishing cars
which were bearing the young lovers to a
haven of safety, whence he sadly wendell
his way to his desolate home -NozJoM

oocMINEAL CULTURE.


In the town Of zimatian, several leagues
south of Caxaca, N. NJ, is the advanced
post of cochineal cultivation. 1t is an In
dian village, where little huts of mud and
canes areinclosed by palisades of other canes
and living hedges of cacti, species Of or
gano, or organ cactus, that grows straight up
in fiuted, hexagonal columns. Within these
hedges are the gardens of cochineal cactus,
which is species of nopal, or prickly pear,
growing in rows to height of three feet,
near together, and very carefully tended.
Since the discovery of aniline dyes, cochineal
has steadily fallen away in value, until now
it hardly pays even the Indian to raise it.
Though worth now but $40 the arroba--
twenty-five pounds-it has been lower, but
formerly brought as high as 800 the aroba,
and immense fortunes were made in it. The
Indians affirm that Caxaca was the original
home of cochineal, whence it was taken to
Guatemala and the Canaries. It was for
merly the leading culture, but now sugar
cane holds the honor, though from various
causes hardly enough is produced for home
consumption.

Some time ago, Dr. Mattison, who had
been a convict in the State Prison, made
some serious charges against the late and
present keeper of accepting presents,
favoritism, etc. At the meeting last
week of the Board of Inspectors of the
Prison, Keeper Laverty called the atten-
ton of the Board to charges recently
made in certain papers published both in
and out of the State concerning the dis
cipline and management of the Prison,
and suggested to the Board the propriety
OF instituting an investigation as to the
truth of the charges. This was deemed
unnecessary by the Board as the charges
were made by discharged convicts and by
employees of the Prison who had been dis
missed for good cause. The Gazette says
the inspectors keep careful watch of the
of the Prison, and are so
aware of the absurdity of the published
charges that in their judgment an investi-
cation to prove their falsity would be
foolish waste of time and money. The
publications referred to only furnish adj
diticnal illustrations of the poets asser-
ton that
No rogue e'er felt the halter draw
Without poor opinion the law"

The History of an Old building.

The History of an Old Building.
1t is always interesting to the inhabi-
tants of place to note the improvement
or destruction of any of its parts, and es-
pecially so, if it is the removal of any of
its old landmarks. We are led to these
remarks by the tearing down of the old
shop at the North East corner of Gordon
Alley and Bridge street, and thinking
that the readers of THE RECORD might
feel an interest in it, we will endeavor to
give short history of the building now
being removed to give place for something
in the way of improvement.
1t was built for a wheelwright shop
about the year 1915, by Philip Marshall,
who with his son carried on that business
in it for about twenty years. During
this time Mr.. Marshall was elected Justice
of the Peace, and built the small addition
to it for 'Squire's Office. This stood at
the East side of the larger building, and
was lately used by Daniel Gallagher for
shoe shop. The property was sold by
oqutto uhoiouaIl W tuo hhinueTts, dHCes-
tors of the present Gershom Lambert,
and was rented to DR.. F. A. Auten for
wheelwright shop. DR.. A. carried on
that business before he became dentist.
1t was then rented to Theodore Housed,
for the same purpose. 1t then passed
into the hands of Mr.. Manning, who
converted it into shop for the manu-
featuring of agricultural implements.
Afterward, Jacob B. Smith, in company
with his son Stephen, opened tin shop
and stove store, which business was car
ried on in it until recently. Stephen pur-
chased the property, and some time after
ward sold one-half of his interest to M.
G. Quick, and carried on the business in
partnership for some years. Mr.. Quick
then bought out Smiths interest in both
business and building, and ran the concern
alone until within few weeks, when the
st. Johns Roman Catholic Church pur-
chased it with the house adjoining ON the
east, belonging to Hugh B. Ely. The
two purchases combined make fine large
building lot ON which the church proposes
to erect UNCONVENTIONAL school.
Thus one by ONE the landmarks fade
away before the march of improvements
and the hands of the coming generation
ruthlessly destroy the works of the gene
ration that preceded it.

mainder of the volume being made up of
Carlyle's great History of the French
