STRANGE NOrlONs.

Tie miners of the West represent q
strar sc cor glOmera;ion Of men. The
English. Welsh and Germans brought
MI of the old world superstitions with
them. and found themselves among Il
class OF men in the Mexican camps who
could equal them and in some cases sur.
PASS theirs. The Mexican1 draw their
ta.es from two sources. Their own
Spanish foreiaihers. and the Aztecs and
TolIecs. found in the country when their
iorefathers conquered il.
Strange ARE the beliefs and stories that
have grown out oi the union Of these
supersiilious elements. Things are lucky
or unlucky because possibly some work
Ell in the Harta said So 500 years ago. or
some old Toltcc had a iii of nightmare M
an equally remote period. One of tie
most commonly believed tales is that Of
the "Steo Devil" The men Tell you that
in some Of the Oldest mines there is an
eVi-spirit which takes the form Of de-
formed dwarf. A PECULIARLY about him
is that he has immensely long arms
arms so long that he can take of his
sandals without STOPPING. This dwarf.
when there is any danger in the mine,
such as cave, goes up tie ladders. liit-
ing himself by his ARM, with his legs
hanging free. As he passes each rung lie
kicks or stamps il out OF the side pieces.
50 that the men when they attempt to
hy find al ,means Of climbing OFT OF the
mine destroyed.
In very Old mines. which were worked
10y 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
toss in the notchcs. When the Indians
tell you of the "StepDevil" they say
that he has on each big toe an enormous
nail. and that rs lie climbs the tree
trunk he uses this Ia gouge the notch
out by splitting off the part on which
the toe rests. The story is evidently an
Irdian one. although altered by the
Mexicans TO suit the change in the means
Of going UP the shaft.

PRACTICAL FOLKS.
