 The season at the Shoshone Emporium opens up with many charming novelties in dress. Leaders in fashion aiming at startling changes and entirely original de- signs The Louis XV costume in buckskin with muskrat edgings will be a favorite among the older and more sedate squaws. A redingote of antiquated log cabin bedquilt and draped at the back with loops of raw hide lariat, will be in favor with old and swayback squaws in half mourning, Mid dle-aged Shoshone matrons will also wear, during the coming season for mourning, a buffalo robe draped from thes houlders and held in place with an iron picket pin. Afternoon costumes will be more dazzling, and will con- sist of flour sack bodice, fastened with metal lie pants buttons of the time of Henry VIII and festooned with spatter work of alkali mud and such other bric a-brac as Indian taste may suggest. Ball costumes will be as heretofore, very attenuated and very sparse.

PRINCE KUNG's REVELATION.

FRINGE hUNS'S kEt ELATlON.
 This is the season for marvellous stories, and Californian has made a rather notable contribution to the collection. Some years ago, the story goes Sacramento doctor was called upon to prescribe for Prince Kung, who has since become the leading statesman of China. The doctor did so well for his pa- tient and himself that he was engaged by the Prince private physician and companion at liberal salary. He lived three years in China, and during that time learned great deal about Chinese history and policy
 Among other things the Prince showed him maps of China and America said to be no less than eight thousand years old and told him that about that time, the two countries not being widely separated by the ocean as they are now, great Chinese general crossed over and conquered all that part of this continent between the Rocky Mountains and the sea, killing all the inhabitants and
 holding the country for thirty years. Why they then withdrew is not explained, but Prince Kung said the Chinese had believed ! until recently that the whole continent of America had been sunk in the ocean.
 They still lay claim to the western half of | ohoei tuelr Olu C1tle, ana mean to take pOS- l session of it again. Within fifty years, the Prince said, North America as far east as the | mountains would be reconquered and held by | China. The doctor suggested that the Chi
 nese could not do this, but the Prince held our powers of resistance in contempt What ! could the Americans do, he said, against an | army of four million men, which China | could send over without missing them?
 The plan for the conquest, as described by I the Prince, is an ingenious one He said the l Chinese would be needed in California to
 build railroads, telegraphs etc., and would
 thus secure footing When their numbers
 should reach two hundred thousand or more
 the attack would begin The servants and | laborers would murder their employers in 1 the night, tear up the railroads and tele l graphs, burn San Francisco and other cities,
 slaughter all the people except the old men,
 women and children. In the meantime a
 powerful navy, with half million Chinese
 warriors, would land and take possession of ] the country. If an American army should
 appear the Chinese would mako short work
 of it. They could have five million men in California ln few months, and would sweep
 the Americans of the face of the earth.
 It is little late for this tale It should
 have been given out while the Chinese haters
 were making laws to keep them out of this
 country. AS it is, even the Californians will | not be much scared

Lord Byron's sister, whose daughters were left in unfortunate circumstances. She had always refused to make them public during her lifetime, but it is probable that her daughters now feel compelled to part with them.

 ''Can it be possible 7" we inquired.
 ''Yes," said he. I'm q farmer, and keep cows. I recently read an article in your pa per about a dairyman's convention, where one of the notices over the door was, Treat your COW you would a lady,' and the ar ticle said it was coutended by our best dairy men that a COW treated in q polite, gentle manly manner, as though she was compan- ion, would give twice as much milk. The plan seemed feasible to me. l had been a hard man with my stock, and thought may be that was one reason my cows always dried up when butter forty cents a pound, and gave plenty of milk when butter was only fif- teen cents a pound I decided te adopt your plan and treat a COW as l would q lady. l had a COW that never had been very much mashed on me- and decided to commence on her, and the next morning after l read your dGvlish paper l put on my Sunday suit, and a wbite plug hat I bought the year Gree ley ran for President, and went to the barn to milk. I noticed the old COW seemed to be bashful and frightened, but taking off my hat and lowing politely, said Madame, excuse the seeming impropriety of the request, but will you do me the favor to hoist P At the | same time tapped her gently on the flank with my plug hat putting the tin pail under her, I sat down on the milking stool.'
 Did she hoist ?' said we, rather anxious to know how the advice of President Smith of Sheboygan, the great dairyman, worked Did she hoist We'll, look at me, and see if you think she hoisted. The COW raised and kicked me with all four feet, switched me with her tail, and hooked me with bott horns at once and when got up out of the bedding in the stall and dug my hat out of the manager, and the milking stool from un der me, and began to maui that COW, forgot all about the treatment of horned cattle Why, she fairly galloped over me, and never want to read your paper again.
 We tried to explain to him that the advice did not apply to the brindle COWS al 1 all but he hobbled out the maddest man tha ever asked q to hoist.

What a Volcano Campo.

Cotopaxi in 1883 threw it's fiery rockets 3,0OO feet above its crater, while in 1854 the blazing mass, struggling for an outlet, roared so that it's awful voice was heard for more than GOO miles. In 1797 the crater in Tun- gurangua, one of the great peaks of the An des flung out torrents of mud which damned up the rivers, opened new lakes, and in val leys 1000 feet wide made deposits GOO feet deep.

On this occasion the sand and scoria formed the Monte Rosini, near Nicholosa, cone of two miles in circumfer- ence and 4,000 feet high. The stream thrown out by Etna in 1916 was in motion, at the rate of yard day, for nine months after the eruption; and it is on record that the lava of the same mountain, after terribls eruption, was not thoroughly cool and con the eruption of Vesuvius, A. D. 70, the sco- ria and ashes vomited forth far exceeded the entire bulk of the mountain while in 1860 Etna disgorged twenty times its own mass. Vesuvlus has sent it's ashes as far as Constan- tinople Syria and Egypt; it hurled stones eight pounds in weight to Pompeii, distance of six miles, while similar masses were tossed up 2,0O0 feet above the summit.

They seem to reflect, Ill their shy, deprecating looks, the terror of generations they cling to their mothers skirts when strangers come near, or burrow out of sight. What first strikes the observer is that these Russian Jews are physically a weakly people, and one understands better after seeing them how the Russian mobs ride rough -shod over them. Centuries of shop keeping ill healthy little dens, of sinking from town to | town in life long fear of outrage and murder, | or poor food and total absence of agricul. | tural work-ali this has dwarfed the Russian Jew in body and mind.

The receivers are not all as bad as the thieves. The Mercantile savings institution at Boston failed in 1878 with deposits of $3, 700, 900, and was placed in the hands of three receivers, Alvah A. Burrage, H. G Crowell and A. J. Robertson. Depositors' books sold at that time for 54 cents on the dollar. The receivers found S33 mortgages among the assets, one half of which lying in 49 cities and towns outside of Boston they had to foreclose. They carried the real es tate, laying out $73, 900 in repairs and having at one time 1000 tenants. Gradually they sold the property and will pay S4 per cent. in dividends to depositors. The Supreme Court allows them $45, ,OOO, or little over 1 per cent. for their services-that is only about $3, ,OOO year each.
