It was a beautiful evening. The
sky was as transparent as a vast
sea of cristal, and the full moon
hung in the heavens ike u great
globe of silver beauty. The stars
twinkled merrily and winkcd sauc-
lily at each other as Bertram Nc
Sorly and his botrothed stolled
slowly along Passyund avenue,
squeezing each others hands and
in low and earnest tones painting
beautiful word pictures Of the joy
GUS future when they would live
and love in their own coy home.
Thoro was Il magnetism in musical
voice that thrilled her to the soul
that caused her to quiyer as if an
electric current was ~coursing
through every nerve in her body.
Are we not happy, my dar-
ling z, he softly asked.
Indeed we are, Francis Pat
rick; my happiness passoth all un-
]derstandmg. My heart is full to
oycrhowing.'
They walked along in silence q
moment, and he continued ;
Suppose, sweetest, you had re
jected me when declared my love
for you. Had you done SO, instead
Of walking with you Tonight Joyous
and happy, l would be carrying a
sore within my bosom. Oh. what
can be sorcr than heart robbed Of
of the love it 50 fondly cherished ?
'Indeed, Francis Patrick,
don't know unless it is a soft corn,
I've got one between two Of my
toes that nearly kills me-"
And they walked on in silonce,
each lost in a train Of reflection thai
could find no u%tterance in idle
words. q

Coco Eswa fer tlis Nogals.

Col T. W. lleman received @
telegram Thursday morning, from
John w. Harrison of st. Louis, in
structing him to close the contract
with NJ. NJ. Gaylord for the Rock
mine in the Nogals. The first pay
mcnt is SO, 600 cash, with u fur
thor consideration, the amount of
which we were unable to learn.
Mr.. Gaylord retains a one-third in
tercst in the mine still, which will
undoubtedly make him a comfort
able income as soon as the mill gets
to running, as it is the intention of
Mr.. Harrison to put in the neces-
sary machinery at once and crowd
things from the start. We con
graduate the Moral boys on their
good luck in securing men like the
parties mentioned to take hold OF
their property. The future now
looks extremely bright for that
camp. Mr.. Gaylord starts fer St.
Louis Monday whore he viii re
ceive his money.

Wayne McYey, as head sachcm.
The object, as stated, is to secure
to Che Indians all the rights and

Emerson regards heaven a a
name for the best state of mind
and heart to which men may at
tain, rather than a place of half
sensual, earthly delights, as re-
gardcd by the majority. lie says:
"The good, by affinity seek the
good; the vile, by affinity tho vile.
Thus of their own volition souls
proceed into heaven, into hell"
Souls utterly absorbed in evil, he
thought, might pass out Of exist
enco, as the following extract
shows
"Whilst man seeks good ends he
is strong by the whole strength Of
nature. In so far as he roves from
these ends, he bcrcavcs himself OF
power, Of auxiliaries; his being
shrinks ont of all remote channels;
he becomes less and less n mote, a
joint, until absolute badness is alb
soluto death"
Every movement Of nature En-
erson deemed a miricale, Il wonder
work OF the great Soul OF the uni
verse. In Christ he saw man fill
ed with divine inspiration, moved
by ectacy Of love and belief to class
himself one with God, because Of
his soul-roaching wish after divine
perfection.

To persons intending to relocate
abandoned claims it is wcllworth to

ton the same as if no former loca
ton or record had ever been made.
The rciocator may state hat it j,

word 'may'' is sometimes constru
ed to mean ''shall," and it is ad
visablo to cover this doubt, espc
cially ifthe location is made from

After the usual period has OK
pired the old claimant has still thC
first right; but if he has common
ced work before another party en-
ters he must complete the ful

would remain forfeited.
