The Alpine Hydraulic Co.

The Alpine Hydraulic Co. COM
prises the following named gentle
men: 4. w. Smith, Geo. Wilson,
Alb. Wilson, Geo. Grier, of Silver
City; James Curtain, of Virginia; C.
True, of Gold Hill; d. Delevan, of
Sutro, and d. Stalker, Of Marklee-
vile. This company after thorough
ly prospecting their ground last
Winter located 100 acres and began
the construction of q ditch which is
three miles long twenty-five inches in
depth, two and half feet at the top
and capable of carrying shout 400
miners inches of water. The pres
sure is about 100 feet. This claim
has been prospected for years past,
by different persons, all conceding
that 1t prospected we'll in gold. AS
much as fifty colors to the pan was
no uncommon result, but owing to
the amount of work required in the
construction of a ditch to convey
water to the ground, none OF the pre-
vious owners could do anything with
the property. The present company
took hold of the work with a deter.
mination to carry it through, and
now there is every reason to believe
that their undertaking will meet
with the success which Is desired.

For Young Readers.
THE PUPPY AND THE BONE.

dear it's very hard indeed, to sit here pa
And see that heartless little girl eat chicken
for her tea!
She don't know how to take hint, for have
said "Bow-wow,"
And no one could look hungrier than / am
looking now.
1t surely is drum-stick that she's holding in
her hand,
If had that I'd be the happiest puppy in the
land!
1 wonder if she hears me crying softly through
I'd yelp out if dared, but it would never do,
Is'pose.
Ma had some meat like that one day, and 1
gnawed it. but since then ...
She's watched me, and I've never had single
chance again.
I've dreamed of it sometimes !-udp!-
Twould move a heart of stone,
That I'm too old for bread and milk, and yet
too young for bone.
Perhaps if should come up near, and play
little trick,
Twill make him sick
That what she always says, and she laughs at
my big head and feet.
'Twould serve her right if should go ana get
lost in the street.
Hook so young, she often says-as if she didn't,

There comes bOnei Iwhined SO hard, lido be-
lieve she knew.
My, what a noise! With teeth like that. a pug
like me deserves
Something beyond such trashy stuff as pickles
and preserves.

A Montreal Hotel.

Joe Beef 8 hotel is unique. 1t is four-stor
ystone building on the river front
of Montreal, and its customers are chiefly
boatmen. On the first floor is a bar
room, decorated with human skulls 1.-THE
proprietor says they are the heads of his
relatives), and on one end of the counter,
for free lunch, always lies huge piece
of raw beef, with knife for hacking off
pieces. The second floor is cheap res
taurant, and above are lodging rooms,
at ten cents night. There is also a
concert hall. But the strangest feature
of the concern is a row of cells in the
cellar, where Joe locks up his guests
when they become boisterously drunk.
II won't have any policeman around
my place" he said to a Boston Herald
correspondent; Pm my own police,
Judge and jury, and l keeps my own
jail" His followers submit to his svs-
tenn, because they escape the fines that
would be imposed if they fell into the
hands OF the police.-N y San.

MOsS.Gathering.

Along the great sandy beaches of tn,
New England coast at the present time
especially on the more northern por
lions, may be seen numbers of persons
engaged in gathering Or accommodating
moss-or sea weed-to be used, as we are
informed, in the production of "blut
monge" in the neighboring towns and
cities, After an easterly gale the beaches
are lined with various plants or their
equivalents of the sea, all of more or lees
value to the fisherman and the seaside
farmer. Along York beach | have seen
the Carrageen or Chondrus moss, used
in the manufacture of various jellies,
washed up by bushels, and its collection
forms an important industry, giving en-
ployment to hundreds of persons who
dry and ship it to all parts of the world.
Even the kelps that come ashore on the
Name beaches are utilized on the farms
and valued for their nutritive properties.
The softer kinds are packed in great
heaps around the cellars to keep out the
winter blasts, while the more delicate
and ornamental varieties are selected by
tasteful hands, pressed and sold during
the summer season to the curiosity deal
er, who labels the more striking forms
Japan" the next grade Africa" and
so on, grading down the extent of their
geographical distribution as they grow
palmer, the common forms being labeled
''coast of Maine." In other countries sea
weed is much more in demand, however,
as the fishermen are, as class, extremely
poor, while those of the New England
States are the backbone and sinew Of the
land, and as class well-to-do. The
Scotch make much of their dulse, a red
sea-weed. The Irish also have it, men.
women and children collecting it, and
to many it is luxury. They call it
dillesk; while the currageen is so called
from an Irish town of the name where it
isfound in unusual quantities. The term
is applied to two species, both edible,
and used mostly in producing blanc
mango. BY putting the fronds in warm
water. the starch they secrete is forced
out, and when allowed to cool forms a
jelly so well known by the above term.
In the extreme northern countries of
Europe the favorite weed is tanrle, and
dulse and tangle are hawked about in
the streets of Edinburgh as are shrimps
and crabs here. In Chill a favorite
delicacy among the native epicures,
is the weed known as D. Urvillcya
of the largest and most mag
nificent productions of the sea. Itgrows
in the surf off the coast, also at the Falk-
land Islands, and forms gigantic cables,
hundreds of feet long, larger than the
human body, resembling huge snake,
and requiring forty or fifty men to drag
one plant upon the shore. The appear.
ance of these monster vines, beating and
TO and fro amid the waves, is
remarkable, looking like mass of huge
marine snakes, and forming a forni-
liable obstacle to the progress of boats,
often upsetting them. York (Me.) Cor.

An Amazing Coronation Feast,

A coronation is always signalized by
acts of Imperial clemency, and in this
respect the ukase issued by Alexander
Ill. on the 9TH of September, 1856, re-
mains memorable. 1t granted COM
plete amnesty to all the political offend
ers of lS25'26 and of the Polish rebellion
OF 1881 who were still in exile or in prison:
also pardons to press offenders, military
defaugters, and to about 5000 other indi.
vlduals in gaols. The Empire was en-.
tirely exonerated from military conscrip
ton during term of four years. A new
and more equitable assessment of the
poll-tax was decreed. Most of the dsa.
bilities which weighed upon the Jews
were removed. Thousands of Crown
serfs were manumitted and received
grants OF land. Finally, the children of
soldiers who, under the former reign,
had been brought up by the State to enter
the army were restored to their parents
These truly wise largesses evoked the
most cordial popular gratitude, insomuct
that the Gar began his reign as PEG.
pies darling. He was so well aware OF
this that he convinced the grandeose idea
of giving a banquet to 100000 of his
poorer subjects from Moscow and the
adjacent villages in the plains around
Petrowski. Preparations were made for
this amazing feast by covering a square
mile with tables, and the tables with
hunks of beef, bread and cakes of kauass.
Unluckily, the Impotence of the guests
did not allow them to wait till the dav of
the dinner. A flagstaff had been erected
in the middle of the plain, and it had
been arranged that the signal to fall
to- should be given by the hosting of
the flag. On the evening before the dav
OF the feast, while some 10000 raujiEs
were lettering round the plain shifting
the food, an English officer named
Minakoff, wishing to try if the ropes of
the flagstaff worked well, gave them a
tug and sent the bunting flying aloft. In
the twinkle of an eye the multitude of
rauJths swooped upon the table and made
a clearance. No hords of famished
wolves could have done the work better.
Beef, bread, beer,-everything went,
and when these were gone the wooden
dishes were carried off also. The Gar
laughed when he was told of the matter.
"Well. well, SO long as they enioyed
that is ali | wanted. But
we must give something to poor Minakoff,
| am sure he must have feared that they
were going to eat him Also

An Interesting Story.

An interesting story of shipwreck and
adventure has recently appeared in the
London newspapers. 1t appears that
the harque Roseneath foundered last
May in the Straits of Magellan. The
captain, his wife and seven of the crew
were picked up by passing vessel.
Another boat containing five of the men
was supposed to be lost. The first of
ticer, named Samson, now turns up with
a story of exciting adventure. He re-
counts in his deposition that the day at
ter leaving the ship they sighted the
shore near Cape Horn. Here they were
overtaken by savages who boarded their
boat. Samson tried to concilate his
captors with biscuits and tobacco. They
seemed friendly at first, but afterward
mastered all the sailors except himself
with hatchets. They then landed on one
of the Terra del Fuego islands (which
abounds with rats about the size of En-
glish CATS Whether the cats on the
island were of proportionate size is not
stated. They lived on shell-fish and an
occasional seal. At night they all slept
In Wlgwam, ''men, women, children
and dogs" The Indians were addicted
to smoking, which produced results SINH
lar to those well-known to small BOYS who
begin the habit with strong cigars. Sam
son suggests that he was saved. as two
other men that he met among the savages
were, in order to get reward from
passing steamers. The reason given is
hardly satisfactory. In all probability
the savages had at the time no cold mis-
sionary in the pantry, and thought that
with little fattening ne would make a
choice dish, either roast or corned. u
timately he escaped with some other
Indians who encamped on the same
shore, and was rescued by the Pacific
liner Aconcagua, which conveyed him to
Valparaiso, whence he reached England.
The tribe of Indians by whom he was
rescued belonged to the Patagonian
shore. Steamers of the North Pacific
line are in the habit of stopping to con-
ciliate the tribe with food and tobacco,
SO as to induce them to save the lives of
any poor fellows who may be wrecked.
He thus accounts for being brought off
to the vessel. and adds that the occa-
sional treachery of the Indians results
from the i'll treatment they have had to
put up with at the hands of the whites
